<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pellinore, post: 3116299, member: 74834&quot;]I don&#039;t have any gold, but I like Umayyad coins because they are symbols of major changes in history. They are attractive - revolutionary, new, pragmatic, matter-of-fact designs, and they are affordable - much more so than European coins of that era. </p><p><br /></p><p>I bought this quite ordinary silver dirham issued by Al Walid I in the AH year 90 = 709 A.D. because of its splendid preservation, and that from a very reputable American seller for only US$ 35. Mint: Wasit, that&#039;s 60 miles south of Baghdad. 26 mm, 2.92 gr. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]791936[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
